SOFTBALL BL.

Playoff decides tourney

Diony McArthur beat Diane McAfee on the second hole of a sudden- death playoff Sunday to win the District 4 women’s zone hip at the R, golf course in Nelson.

The two Castlegar players were tied at 160 after two rounds and both bogeyed the first playoff hole.

The championship was decided when McArthur parred the second extra hole while McAfee, the tournament’s defending champion, bogeyed.

McArthur held a five-shot lead over McAfee with nine holes to go before McAfee made the charge to pull even.

McArthur left Monday for Victoria where she'll play in the B.C, Women’s Amateur which begins today at the Gorge Vale Golf and Country Club.

Nelson fastballers win cash

While Castlegar teams were busy knocking each other off in the Midway Invitational fastball tournament last weekend, their league rivals, the Nelson Athletics went on to win the whole thing.

Banjo’s Pub, the Cast} Merch and the Athletics of the Castlegar Men’s Fastball League all made it to the final six in the 12-team tourney and then were forced to play each other in the crucial games.

Banjo’s knocked the Merchants out of the money on the final

Fans don't worry Watson

SOUTHPORT, England (AP) ~ Tom Watson has too many sweet memories of Royal Birk- dale, too many hopes of winning a sixth British Open to worry about American-bashing by fans.

This is where Watson won his fifth British title in 1983, the undulating links course that’s so enraptured him with its hospi- tality that he praised England as “the last civilized country left in the world.”

He is a worldly 41 now and his fondness for the land hasn't changed.

No matter that there is talk of British fans ragging American players this year in retaliation for the way Scotsman Ian Woos- nam was treated at the Masters.

Watson heard the oorish taunts by American fans that so infuriated Woosnam as the two dueled through the final holes at Augusta, Ga., in April. Watson consoled his rival, told him to ignore the fans, then watched as Woosnam won.

It seemed only fair. Another Brit, Nick Faldo, made a similar gesture of sportsmanship eight

Veteran is seeking his sixth British Open title

years ago, telling Watson to ignore the cheers of British fans when he made a poor shot. Wat- son listened and went on to win.

If some fans want toot against Americans this year, breaching the etiquette of a sport that retains so much of its genteel heritage, Watson insists he won't let it bother him:

“The game is bigger than that,” he said simply.

More important to Watson was his quest to tie Harry Var- don’s record of six British cham- pionships.

“I would love to tie it,’ Watgon said after his practice round Tuesday. “Internally, I feel I can win the tournament. I haven't won since 1987 and some critics say I can’t win again, but I am not here to finish second. I am here to win.”

Queen Victoria was still on the throne when Vardon won his

first title in 1896, Vardon won his last title 18 years later.

Watson won his first British Open in 1975, and 16 years later he’s playing well enough to do it again. He came close to winning his third Masters a few months ago, but is rated a 33-1 shot by the touts to win the 120th British Open on Sunday.

Watson didn’t always have a love affair with Br links courses. In face, even after win- ning his first one at Carnoustie, Scotland, it took him several years to overcome his initial dis- like and understand how to play them.

“I didn’t like the bouncy, hard types of run-in shots you had te play,” he |. “I preferred to play by the yardages.”

His conversion began when he won at Turnberry, Scotland in 1977, and was confirmed when he ran a ball up short and

made an eagle in a losing effort at Royal Lytham, England in 1979.

“I said, ‘This is the game.’ There's some feel, there’s imagi- nation involved there,” he said.

In a way, it was like return- ing to his roots,

“It has something to do with the way I originally learned how to play the game,” he said. “When I was a little kid, you'd bump-and-run it on the greens .

. . When you had to go carry over something, that was a hole you thought about the whole round.”

FOR THE RECORD

A story in the June 22 Castlegar News stating that the Okee Dokees slo-pitch team was the best local team in a the Metaline Falls Can-Am slo- pitch tournament was erro- neous. The Okee Dokees were not the best local team in the tournament and a news release issued by the club said nothing to indicate that they were.

The Athletics lost their first game of the tourney then won six straight, including a 6-2 win over the Rutland Rovers in the final, on the way to a $1,000 first-place pay day.

It was a little revenge for the Athletic against Rutland who were the only team to beat Nelson in the tournament.

Kelowna had three entries in the tournament while other teams came from Penticton, Vernon and the hosts from Mid- way.

Rotarian gives talk on local recycling

By JOHN CHARTERS

“The rising public conscious-

88 of the rapidly filling land- falls and the need for a coherent recycling policy has the govern- ment and everyone else og the spot,” said Rotarian Martin Meyer in a presentation last week to the club,

Meyer, who has been involved with recycling in the Castlegar areas since it’s inception in 1990, spoke about the recycling group which was formed on a voluntary basis over a year ago with a view to making recom- mendations to the government.

However, it is still without a paid coordinator or funding, and it appears that there is no con- certed governmental will to get this essential project off the ground and “up to speed”, Meyer said.

Ona more positive note, the group has issued a directory and the Castlegar News features a weekly column, Meyer said.

Studies inti dlisposal patterns in the Nelson/area have been recommended for use as a good indication of local patterns, rather than striking a whole new set of studies focussed on the Castlegar area, he said.

However, the government “ignored” the r dation

public funds.

Meyer stressed the need for public education in recycling and cited the recent failure of a recycling depot in Castlegar as a case in point. Some initial, super- pega he said, is essential, as is

of renienal ais.

kets,

It was suggested that private operations tended to promote “high grade"materials. What is needed, therefore, is a coopera- tive effort by government, pri- vate groups and a.trained and educated public, he said.

President Lach Farrell, draw- ing on Meyer's call for coopera- tion, gave an example of local cooperation.

Under the Rotary World Community Service program, the Mexican government, he said, had issued an appeal for used educational material. The Castlegar School Board had 200 used extra student desks in stor- age so last week arrangements were made through the World Community Services to donate the desks, while Rotarian Art Coburn, of Williams Moving and Storage, donated two large vans and took them to Colville for

hi to Mexico.

and has set up a series of Province wide studies which includes the Castlegar district.

A public meeting in June to report on this study brought up nothing new, and prompted one Rotarian to suggest that it was just another study in recycling

Choosing Clay, a travelling exhibit originating with the Canadian Craft Museum (in Vancouver) in collaboration with the Potters’ Guild of B.C., represents work by both estab- lished artists and fast-rising talents.

Organizers invited seven acclaimed B.C. potters to show some of their most inspired and impressive functional work. They also asked each. of these seven to choose one emerging artist worthy of note. Nelson's David Lawson chose Castle- gar’s Garry Graham.

Ann Rosenberg, arts editor. for the Vancouver Sun, wrote of Graham’s work: “The clay in (his) raku bowl looks like smouldering metal. The gener- ous vessel fits into a narrow base that resembles a Mesopotamian gate. This pot, suggesting an ancient ampho- ra, is pure magic. And so are Graham's slab-built torsos that dance beside it. The crater- glazed surfaces belong to this age and no other.”

Since opening in Vancouver the show has been travelling across Canada.

The exhibit’s 42 distinctive

statements are all vessels - functional in design or refer- ence, as opposed to purely

al, says the Canadi Craft Museum.

For the second half of the double bill, master printmaker Richard Taylor of Johnson’s Landing, features his exhibit called Invitation to the God- dess.

“The title is about evoking the feminine energy of the ecstatic into my life work,” Tay-

lor said.

Taylor’s influences and themes are both the outer world of nature and the inner world of dreams and fantasy, __the release said.

Taylor has exhibited widely in B.C., as. well as in Guatemala and Japan, and will show some 20 works at the NEC, with techniques includ- ing hanga, silk screen, acrylic and waterovlor.

Featured will be a triptych

in acrylic: three viéws of Fry Creek, a pristine valley not far from his home, the release said.

“The advantage in a one-of- a-kind painting is the much larger range of colors that can go into it, versus the smaller range in the prints,” he said.

Choosing Clay and Invita- tion to the Goddess will run from July 18 to Aug. 25. An opening reception with the artists will be held on July 19, at 7 p.m.
